MORE than 60 dogs took part in an open air cafe in Southampton today.

Dogs and their owners took over The Esplanade at Westquay this morning for a free "Pupuccino" to celebrate the release of the book Happy Dog Days at the Pug Cafe.

The "Pop + Bark Pupuccino Bar" was hosted on the astro-turfed area where The Spritz Social is currently located and between 9am and 11am.

More than 60 dogs arrived to take part from mixed breeds to poms and Retrievers.

Organisers said that all dogs were "super well behaved" and "happy to be out meeting new friends".

They added: "The humans enjoyed food and drinks whilst the dogs tucked into Gourmet Pupuccinos and pupcakes.

"Many humans were happy to be out again socialising in a safe open air space."
